Ever done anything *this* stupid?

Yeah, so here I was at work thinking of things to entertain myself. So I opened up MS Outlook, hit Alt + F11 to get into the VBA editor. Now mind you, the Security settings on this computer were set to low. I put in the following code:

VB Code:

Private Sub Application_Startup()
    Application.Quit
End Sub

You know what, don't do this. I spent 1 1/2 hours trying to find where Outlook stores the code and could not find it. I finally tracked down the security settings in the registry:

Code:

---

HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Office\9.0\Outlook\Security

---

I changed the value to 3, so that it wouldn't run any Macro's period. The 9 after Office in the key location will vary depending on your version of Office though.

Just thought I would share this new found wisdom with everyone.
Can anyone beat it?

Muppet :D Hahahahaha

nice one!

I did something almost a stupid once.. back with DOS/Windows 3.11, I was running out of disk space (on a 10 Mb drive!), so I ran a program called PKLite to compress all Exe/Com files on the drive.

It saved about 2 Mb of space! :cool: but it also compressed a few vital files (like Command.Com) that need to have a specific structure.. so suddenly the computer refused to do anything!! :eek:

I was lucky that my step-dad owned a computer shop, so he fixed it for me :)

:lol:

That was good. :)

Hahaha that's a good one, geek. At least this just stopped outlook from staying open. The really sad part is that I opened it multiple times trying to hit Alt+F11, Ctrl+Break every hotkey I could think of to try and stop the code, but that sad truth was it just fired too damn fast for me to be able to get it.

You know, just earlier before I came into work I upgraded a used system I bought to an Athlon 1800 XP and it wasn't auto detecting the CPU type/Speed. I tried everything in the BIOS and all that. Turns out, I had to take a jumper off of the Jumperless Motherboard before it would Auto-Detect the CPU.

I hate computers so bad sometimes, well, all the times. Stupid computer addiction....:mad:
